Observation Record Optimized for Human Consumption While I enjoyed writing my last post, iHuman, many might have found it… umm… inaccessible. As I do carry an intent to share ideas, I feel compelled to compose a companion piece. No matter how I express these ideas, they remain universally irrelevant. Here I will rephrase my thoughts…

Observation Record Regarding Organic Perspective Centralized to Specified Spacetime Coordinates I was recently asked to express what I believe in the context of a discussion about the rationality of the atheist position. While I have no personal issue with sharing these details, within my egalitarian perspective, I have no rational reason to suggest this text…
Merry Christmas, Christians!
I want to wish every Christian a very merry Christmas! Thanks to the wisdom of our nation’s founding fathers, you are free to celebrate the birth of Jesus of Nazareth, whom you believe to be son of the universe’s creator! Christians believe the life of Jesus was sacrificed so that the wrongs of faithful humans…
The Discouraging Disregard of The Theist
A Reaction Post I recently came across this blog post on Twitter titled, “The Encouraging Anger of the Atheist”. Its subject is the apparent anger expressed by atheists engaged in discussions about religion and how that might not be a bad thing (for religious agendas). It starts like this: Here is a little something that…
Presuppositionalism: Fitting a Big World in a Small Mind
What is presuppositionalism? Is presupposition compatible with science? Why are there still creationists? Why are there still flat-earthers? How does anyone still believe Noah’s ark is real? Does anyone really believe all of the Bible? As much as it reminds me of writing a high school essay, I will start by defining terms. Since I’m…
The Devil Made Me Write This
Who are Satanists? What do they believe? Where did the idea of Satan come from? Who believes Satan is real? Who worships Satan? Are atheists Satan worshippers? Are Satanists atheists? When it comes to the dark lord, there’s a lot to unpack. Let’s start with a list of SOME common names for this character: Satan,…
Atheism and The Missing Link to Evolution
Atheism and (the theory of) Evolution: How are they connected and why does it matter? In order to have a meaningful discussion, the participants must be sharing a language. This may seem a painfully obvious notion, but in this case, it merits additional consideration. Whether you’re reading this in English as written, or translated version,…
How Can Atheists Be Moral?
Recently I came across a blog post regarding atheism and morality. It was reasonably well written and even cited a survey from an accredited University and some quotes from its author, but nothing else. Perhaps this wouldn’t be so bad, but it wasn’t written by an atheist. It was written by a Christian for a…
What Kind of People Are Atheists?
The stereotypes, rumors, and prejudices regarding nonbelievers A lot of people have a lot of beliefs about atheists in general. Since the ONLY thing all atheists have in common is a lack of belief in gods, those beliefs are necessarily wrong. This post is about the public perception of atheism, some common stereotypes, where they…
Apologists and Apologetics Part II: Talking to Those That Talk to God
A loose abbreviated guide on how to deal with (Christian) god’s special warriors “If it doesn’t fit, you must acquit.” Thanks to the late Johnnie Cochran (pictured) for that gem. In his famous defense of OJ Simpson, he used this short rhyme to cast doubt on the guilt of his client, despite substantial presented evidence…
